Below you can read feedback from an ITTT graduate regarding one section of their online TEFL certification course. Each of our online courses is broken down into concise units that focus on specific areas of English language teaching.

 

This unit introduces the different types of learners and how the teacher should deal with each of these in a separate manner. Teaching beginners is different from teaching young children, for example and this requires different teaching strategies for motivation and attention seeking. Teaching business English to employees in a company would also require different means and plans than teaching students at a school or a university.First, I have learnt several interesting activities to let the students practise the new grammar knowledge, for example, teachers can use detective game and telling stories to practise past continues tense; teachers can also use card game and fish to intensify past simple tense. Second, I realized that some typical errors and mistakes are very easy made by the students, for instance, neglect the verb to be or participle form -ing.
